ABSTRACT

The present invention relates to substituted imidazoquinoxaline compounds of general formula (I) as inhibitors of Mps-1 Kinase or TTK, and being active against inflammation and cancer.

The present invention relates to substituted imidazoquinoxalinecompounds of general formula (I) as described and defined herein, tomethods of preparing said compounds, to pharmaceutical compositions andcombinations comprising said compounds, to the use of said compounds formanufacturing a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment orprophylaxis of a disease, as well as to intermediate compounds useful inthe preparation of said compounds.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to chemical compounds that inhibit Mps-1(Monopolar Spindle 1) kinase (also known as Tyrosine Threonine Kinase,UK). Mps-1 is a dual specificity Ser/Thr kinase which plays a key rolein the activation of the mitotic checkpoint (also known as spindlecheckpoint, spindle assembly checkpoint) thereby ensuring properchromosome segregation during mitosis [Abrieu A et al., Cell, 2001, 106,83-93]. Every dividing cell has to ensure equal separation of thereplicated chromosomes into the two daughter cells. Upon entry intomitosis, chromosomes are attached at their kinetochores to themicrotubules of the spindle apparatus. The mitotic checkpoint is asurveillance mechanism that is active as long as unattached kinetochoresare present and prevents mitotic cells from entering anaphase andthereby completing cell division with unattached chromosomes[Suijkerbuijk S J and Kops G J, Biochemica et Biophysica Acta, 2008,1786, 24-31; Musacchio A and Salmon E D, Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol., 2007,8, 379-93]. Once all kinetochores are attached in a correct amphitelic,i.e. bipolar, fashion with the mitotic spindle, the checkpoint issatisfied and the cell enters anaphase and proceeds through mitosis. Themitotic checkpoint consists of complex network of a number of essentialproteins, including members of the MAD (mitotic arrest deficient, MAD1-3) and Bub (Budding uninhibited by benzimidazole, Bub 1-3) families,the motor protein CENP-E, Mps-1 kinase as well as other components, manyof these being over-expressed in proliferating cells (e.g. cancer cells)and tissues [Yuan B et al., Clinical Cancer Research, 2006, 12, 405-10].The essential role of Mps-1 kinase activity in mitotic checkpointsignalling has been shown by shRNA-silencing, chemical genetics as wellas chemical inhibitors of Mps-1 kinase [Jelluma N et al., PLos ONE,2008, 3, e2415; Jones M H et al., Current Biology, 2005, 15, 160-65;Dorer R K et al., Current Biology, 2005, 15, 1070-76; Schmidt M et al.,EMBO Reports, 2005, 6, 866-72].

There is ample evidence linking reduced but incomplete mitoticcheckpoint function with aneuploidy and tumorigenesis [Weaver B A andCleveland D W, Cancer Research, 2007, 67, 10103-5; King R W, Biochimicaet Biophysica Acta, 2008, 1786, 4-14]. In contrast, complete inhibitionof the mitotic checkpoint has been recognised to result in severechromosome missegregation and induction of apoptosis in tumour cells[Kops G J et al., Nature Reviews Cancer, 2005, 5, 773-85; Schmidt M andMedema R H, Cell Cycle, 2006, 5, 159-63; Schmidt M and Bastians H, DrugResistance Updates, 2007, 10, 162-81]. Therefore, mitotic checkpointabrogation through pharmacological inhibition of Mps-1 kinase or othercomponents of the mitotic checkpoint represents a new approach for thetreatment of proliferative disorders including solid tumours such ascarcinomas and sarcomas and leukaemias and lymphoid malignancies orother disorders associated with uncontrolled cellular proliferation.

WO97/019079 (Biomedica Foscama Industria Chimico-Farmaceutica S.P.A.)relates to imidazo[1,2-a]quinoxalin-4-amines active as adenosineantagonists as therapeutically active compounds for psychiatric andneurological disorders of the central nervous system. Saidimidazo[1,2-a]quinoxalin-4-amines are substituted in position 1 with ahydrogen atom or a methyl group.

WO02/060386 (Bristol-Myers Squibb Company) relates to methods ofpreventing and treating inflammatory and immune-related diseases ordisorders using inhibitors of IKB kinase (IKK); it relates inter alia tospecific IKK inhibitors,4-(2′-aminoethyl)amino-1,8-dimethylimidazo(1,2-a)quinoxaline andbenzo-imidazo-quinoxalines.

WO2007/109813 (Novartis AG) relates to compositions comprisingimidazoquinoxaline compounds as immunomodulators, also to methods ofadministering the compositions to enhance the immune response of asubject. Said imidazoquinoxalines are substituted in position 4 with an—NH₂ group or a bis(4-methoxybenzyl)amino group.

WO 2008/117225 (Mutabilis SA) relates to imidazolo-heteroarylderivatives which inhibit the activity of the Dlta enzyme ofGram-positive bacteria and are useful to treat Gram-positive bacterialinfections. Said imidazoheteroaryl derivatives includeimidazoquinoxalines which possess an —NHCH₂CH₂CH₂OR5 substituent inposition 4, R5 being H or a substituent as defined therein.

WO 2009/024824 A1 (AstraZeneca UK Limited) relates to2-anilinopurin-8-ones which possess inhibitory activity against thespindle checkpoint kinase tyrosine threonine kinase (TTK)/monopolarspindle 1 (Mps-1) for the treatment of proliferative disorders.

However, none of the state of the art described above describes thesubstituted imidazoquinoxaline compounds of general formula (I) of thepresent invention, or a stereoisomer, a tautomer, an N-oxide, a hydrate,a solvate, or a salt thereof, or a mixture of same, as described anddefined herein, and as hereinafter referred to as “compounds of thepresent invention”, or their pharmacological activity. It has now beenfound, and this constitutes the basis of the present invention, thatsaid compounds of the present invention have surprising and advantageousproperties.

In particular, said compounds of the present invention have surprisinglybeen found to effectively inhibit Mps-1 kinase and may therefore be usedfor the treatment or prophylaxis of diseases of uncontrolled cellgrowth, proliferation and/or survival, inappropriate cellular immuneresponses, or inappropriate cellular inflammatory responses or diseaseswhich are accompanied with uncontrolled cell growth, proliferationand/or survival, inappropriate cellular immune responses, orinappropriate cellular inflammatory responses, particularly in which theuncontrolled cell growth, proliferation and/or survival, inappropriatecellular immune responses, or inappropriate cellular inflammatoryresponses is mediated by Mps-1 kinase, such as, for example,haemotological tumours, solid tumours, and/or metastases thereof, e.g.leukaemias and myelodysplastic syndrome, malignant lymphomas, head andneck tumours including brain tumours and brain metastases, tumours ofthe thorax including non-small cell and small cell lung tumours,gastrointestinal tumours, endocrine tumours, mammary and othergynaecological tumours, urological tumours including renal, bladder andprostate tumours, skin tumours, and sarcomas, and/or metastases thereof.

The compounds of this invention may contain one or more asymmetriccentre, depending upon the location and nature of the varioussubstituents desired. Asymmetric carbon atoms may be present in the (R)or (S) configuration, resulting in racemic mixtures in the case of asingle asymmetric centre, and diastereomeric mixtures in the case ofmultiple asymmetric centres. In certain instances, asymmetry may also bepresent due to restricted rotation about a given bond, for example, thecentral bond adjoining two substituted aromatic rings of the specifiedcompounds.

Substituents on a ring may also be present in either cis or trans form.It is intended that all such configurations (including enantiomers anddiastereomers), are included within the scope of the present invention.

Preferred compounds are those which produce the more desirablebiological activity. Separated, pure or partially purified isomers andstereoisomers or racemic or diastereomeric mixtures of the compounds ofthis invention are also included within the scope of the presentinvention. The purification and the separation of such materials can beaccomplished by standard techniques known in the art.

The optical isomers can be obtained by resolution of the racemicmixtures according to conventional processes, for example, by theformation of diastereoisomeric salts using an optically active acid orbase or formation of covalent diastereomers. Examples of appropriateacids are tartaric, diacetyltartaric, ditoluoyltartaric andcamphorsulfonic acid. Mixtures of diastereoisomers can be separated intotheir individual diastereomers on the basis of their physical and/orchemical differences by methods known in the art, for example, bychromatography or fractional crystallisation. The optically active basesor acids are then liberated from the separated diastereomeric salts. Adifferent process for separation of optical isomers involves the use ofchiral chromatography (e.g., chiral HPLC columns), with or withoutconventional derivatisation, optimally chosen to maximise the separationof the enantiomers. Suitable chiral HPLC columns are manufactured byDiacel, e.g., Chiracel OD and Chiracel OJ among many others, allroutinely selectable. Enzymatic separations, with or withoutderivatisation, are also useful. The optically active compounds of thisinvention can likewise be obtained by chiral syntheses utilizingoptically active starting materials.

The schemes and procedures described below illustrate general syntheticroutes to the compounds of general formula (I) of the invention and arenot intended to be limiting. It is obvious to the person skilled in theart that the order of transformations as exemplified in the Schemes canbe modified in various ways. The order of transformations exemplified inthe Schemes is therefore not intended to be limiting. In addition,interconversion of any of the substituents, R¹, R², R^(2a), R³, R⁴, R⁵,R⁶, or R⁷ can be achieved before and/or after the exemplifiedtransformations. These modifications can be such as the introduction ofprotecting groups, cleavage of protecting groups, reduction or oxidationof functional groups, halogenation, metallation, substitution or otherreactions known to the person skilled in the art. These transformationsinclude those which introduce a functionality which allows for furtherinterconversion of substituents. Appropriate protecting groups and theirintroduction and cleavage are well-known to the person skilled in theart (see for example T.W. Greene and P.G.M. Wuts in Protective Groups inOrganic Synthesis, 3^(rd) edition, Wiley 1999). Specific examples aredescribed in the subsequent paragraphs. Further, it is possible that twoor more successive steps may be performed without work-up beingperformed between said steps, e.g. a “one-pot” reaction, as iswell-known to the person skilled in the art.

A first reaction scheme is outlined infra:

Synthesis of Compounds of General Formula (I)

wherein R¹, R², R³, R⁴, R⁵, R⁶, and R⁷ have the meaning as given forgeneral formula (I), supra, Y is a halogen atom as defined supra, and Zrepresents a “suitable functional group” via which the R² of the R²—Zcompound can be coupled, by a coupling reaction, onto the Y-bearingcarbon atom of a compound (4), thereby replacing said Y with said R²moiety.

R^(2a) has the same definition as R².

Compounds of general formula (I) can be synthesised according to theprocedure depicted in Scheme 1.

2-amino-3-chloroquinoxaline intermediates of general formula (1) may becommercially available or can be synthesized according to scheme 2.

Synthesis of 2-amino-3-chloroquinoxaline intermediates

The person skilled in the art will also recognise that there are manyprecedented methods for synthesising suitable2-amino-3-chloroquinoxaline intermediates of general formula (1); some2-amino-3-chloroquinoxaline intermediates may be obtained commercially.One possible route to 2-amino-3-chloroquinoxaline intermediates, asdepicted in scheme 2, is to convert commercially available and suitablysubstituted ortho-amino-anilines (A) to the corresponding1,4-dihydro-quinoxaline-2,3-dione intermediate (B) by condensation withdiethyl oxalate. Chlorination of this intermediate (B) with POCl₃ yields2,3-dichloro-quinoxalines (C) [see for example the preparation of2,3-dichloro-6-fluoroquinoxaline; S. Ceccarelli et al./Eur. J. Med.Chem. 33 (1998) 943-955]. Aminolysis of the 2,3-dichloro-quinoxalineintermediate yields the required 2-amino-3-chloroquinoxalineintermediate (1). The person skilled in the art will recognise thatdepending on the substitution pattern of the 2,3-dichloro-quinoxalineintermediate, regioisomers may be generated, which have to be separatedby known methods, like for example flash chromatography.

With regard to Scheme 1:

A suitably substituted 2-amino-3-chloroquinoxaline intermediate ofgeneral formula (1) is converted to the corresponding4-chloro-imidazo[1,2-a]quinoxaline of general formula (2) by reactionwith an alpha-halo-keto derivative, for example2-bromo-1,1-diethoxy-ethane in a suitable solvent system, such as, forexample, THF and water, at temperatures ranging from room temperature tothe boiling point of the solvent [see for example S. Parra etal./European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 36 (2001) 255-264]. Theperson skilled in the art will recognise that depending on thesubstitution pattern of the 2-amino-3-chloroquinoxaline intermediate,regioisomers may be generated, which have to be separated by knownmethods, like flash chromatography.

Intermediates of general formula (2) may be converted to1-halo-4-chloro-imidazo[1,2-a]quinoxaline intermediates of generalformula (3) by reaction with a suitable halogenation agent, such as NBSfor example, in the presence of a suitable solvent, such as NMP forexample, at temperatures ranging from room temperature to the boilingpoint of the solvent, preferably room temperature.

Intermediates of general formula (3) may be converted to substituted2-amino-7-halo-quinoxaline intermediates (4) by reaction with suitableamines in the presence of a suitable base, such as, for example DIPEA ina suitable solvent such as for example DMF or NMP, at temperaturesranging from room temperature to the boiling point [see for example C.Deleuze-Masque'fa et al./Bioorg. Med. Chem. 12 (2004) 1129-1139].

As depicted in Scheme 1, supra, substituted 2-amino-7-halo-quinoxalineintermediates (4) can be converted directly to compounds of generalformula (I), by a coupling reaction, for example, particularly ametal-catalysed coupling reaction, with a compound of formula R²—Z, inwhich R² is as defined as for compounds of general formula (I) supra,and Z represents a “suitable functional group” via which the R² of theR²—Z compound can be coupled onto the Y-bearing carbon atom of acompound (4), thereby replacing said Y with said R² moiety. Examples ofsuch “suitable functional groups”, Z in R²—Z include boronic acids,R²—B(OH)₂, or boronic esters, R²—B(OC₁-C₆-alkyl)₂, for example.Alternatively, in such couplings, Z in R²—Z may be an activated hydrogenatom for example of an amine R—N—H (R²═R—N), a phenol R—O—H (R²═R—O), analkyne R—C≡C—H (R2=R—C≡C), an alkene R—C═C—H (R2═R—C═C), or a metal ion,for example Zn²⁺ of Zn(CN)₂ (R²═CN), which allows coupling in thepresence of an suitable catalyst, such as one mentioned below, andoptionally with a suitable base, such as one mentioned below, optionallyin a suitable solvent.

As regards intermediate (4), examples of Y═Br, for example.

Examples of such coupling reactions may be found in the textbookentitled “Metal-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling Reactions”, Armin de Meijere(Editor), Francois Diederich (Editor) September 2004, Wiley InterscienceISBN: 978-3-527-30518-6.

Said coupling reactions take place optionally in the presence of asuitable catalyst, such as Pd(OAc)₂ and P(oTol)₃ for example, andoptionally with a suitable base, such as potassium carbonate forexample, optionally in a suitable solvent, such as THF for example.

Also as depicted in Scheme 1, supra, substituted2-amino-7-halo-quinoxaline intermediates (4) can be converted tointermediates (5), by a coupling reaction as described supra with acompound of formula R^(2a)—Z, in which R^(2a) is as defined supra, and Zrepresents a “suitable functional group”, as defined supra, via whichthe R^(2a) of the R^(2a)—Z compound can be coupled, by a couplingreaction, as described supra, onto the Y-bearing carbon atom of acompound (4), thereby replacing said Y with said R^(2a) moiety, thusproviding intermediates (5). Intermediates (5) can then be converted tocompounds of general formula (I) by one or more further transformations.These modifications can be such as cleavage of protecting groups,reduction or oxidation of functional groups, halogenation, metallation,substitution or other reactions known to the person skilled in the art,for example an amide bond formation.

The compounds and intermediates produced according to the methods of theinvention may require purification. Purification of organic compounds iswell known to the person skilled in the art and there may be severalways of purifying the same compound. In some cases, no purification maybe necessary. In some cases, the compounds may be purified bycrystallisation. In some cases, impurities may be removed by stirringusing a suitable solvent. In some cases, the compounds may be purifiedby chromatography, particularly flash chromatography, using for examplepre-packed silica gel cartridges, e.g. from Separtis such as Isolute®Flash silica gel or Isolute® Flash NH2 silica gel in combination with asuitable chromatographic system such as a Flashmaster II (Separtis) oran Isolera system (Biotage) and eluents such as, for example, gradientsof hexane/EtOAc or DCM/methanol. In some cases, the compounds may bepurified by preparative HPLC using, for example, a Waters autopurifierequipped with a diode array detector and/or on-line electrosprayionisation mass spectrometer in combination with a suitable pre-packedreverse phase column and eluants such as, for example, gradients ofwater and acetonitrile which may contain additives such astrifluoroacetic acid, formic acid or aqueous ammonia.

A patient, for the purposeof this invention, is a mammal, including a human, in need of treatmentfor the particular condition or disease. Therefore, the presentinvention includes pharmaceutical compositions that are comprised of apharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a pharmaceutically effectiveamount of a compound, or salt thereof, of the present invention. Apharmaceutically acceptable carrier is preferably a carrier that isrelatively non-toxic and innocuous to a patient at concentrationsconsistent with effective activity of the active ingredient so that anyside effects ascribable to the carrier do not vitiate the beneficialeffects of the active ingredient. A pharmaceutically effective amount ofcompound is preferably that amount which produces a result or exerts aninfluence on the particular condition being treated. The compounds ofthe present invention can be administered withpharmaceutically-acceptable carriers well known in the art using anyeffective conventional dosage unit forms, including immediate, slow andtimed release preparations, orally, parenterally, topically, nasally,ophthalmically, optically, sublingually, rectally, vaginally, and thelike.

For oral administration, the compounds can be formulated into solid orliquid preparations such as capsules, pills, tablets, troches, lozenges,melts, powders, solutions, suspensions, or emulsions, and may beprepared according to methods known to the art for the manufacture ofpharmaceutical compositions. The solid unit dosage forms can be acapsule that can be of the ordinary hard- or soft-shelled gelatin typecontaining, for example, surfactants, lubricants, and inert fillers suchas lactose, sucrose, calcium phosphate, and corn starch.

In another embodiment, the compounds of this invention may be tabletedwith conventional tablet bases such as lactose, sucrose and cornstarchin combination with binders such as acacia, corn starch or gelatin,disintegrating agents intended to assist the break-up and dissolution ofthe tablet following administration such as potato starch, alginic acid,corn starch, and guar gum, gum tragacanth, acacia, lubricants intendedto improve the flow of tablet granulation and to prevent the adhesion oftablet material to the surfaces of the tablet dies and punches, forexample talc, stearic acid, or magnesium, calcium or zinc stearate,dyes, coloring agents, and flavoring agents such as peppermint, oil ofwintergreen, or cherry flavoring, intended to enhance the aestheticqualities of the tablets and make them more acceptable to the patient.Suitable excipients for use in oral liquid dosage forms includedicalcium phosphate and diluents such as water and alcohols, forexample, ethanol, benzyl alcohol, and polyethylene alcohols, either withor without the addition of a pharmaceutically acceptable surfactant,suspending agent or emulsifying agent. Various other materials may bepresent as coatings or to otherwise modify the physical form of thedosage unit. For instance tablets, pills or capsules may be coated withshellac, sugar or both.

Dispersible powders and granules are suitable for the preparation of anaqueous suspension. They provide the active ingredient in admixture witha dispersing or wetting agent, a suspending agent and one or morepreservatives. Suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspendingagents are exemplified by those already mentioned above. Additionalexcipients, for example those sweetening, flavoring and coloring agentsdescribed above, may also be present.

The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention may also be in theform of oil-in-water emulsions. The oily phase may be a vegetable oilsuch as liquid paraffin or a mixture of vegetable oils. Suitableemulsifying agents may be (1) naturally occurring gums such as gumacacia and gum tragacanth, (2) naturally occurring phosphatides such assoy bean and lecithin, (3) esters or partial esters derived form fattyacids and hexitol anhydrides, for example, sorbitan monooleate, (4)condensation products of said partial esters with ethylene oxide, forexample, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate. The emulsions may alsocontain sweetening and flavoring agents.

Oily suspensions may be formulated by suspending the active ingredientin a vegetable oil such as, for example, arachis oil, olive oil, sesameoil or coconut oil, or in a mineral oil such as liquid paraffin. Theoily suspensions may contain a thickening agent such as, for example,beeswax, hard paraffin, or cetyl alcohol. The suspensions may alsocontain one or more preservatives, for example, ethyl or n-propylp-hydroxybenzoate; one or more coloring agents; one or more flavoringagents; and one or more sweetening agents such as sucrose or saccharin.

Syrups and elixirs may be formulated with sweetening agents such as, forexample, glycerol, propylene glycol, sorbitol or sucrose. Suchformulations may also contain a demulcent, and preservative, such asmethyl and propyl parabens and flavoring and coloring agents.

The compounds of this invention may also be administered parenterally,that is, subcutaneously, intravenously, intraocularly, intrasynovially,intramuscularly, or interperitoneally, as injectable dosages of thecompound in preferably a physiologically acceptable diluent with apharmaceutical carrier which can be a sterile liquid or mixture ofliquids such as water, saline, aqueous dextrose and related sugarsolutions, an alcohol such as ethanol, isopropanol, or hexadecylalcohol, glycols such as propylene glycol or polyethylene glycol,glycerol ketals such as 2,2-dimethyl-1,1-dioxolane-4-methanol, etherssuch as poly(ethylene glycol) 400, an oil, a fatty acid, a fatty acidester or, a fatty acid glyceride, or an acetylated fatty acid glyceride,with or without the addition of a pharmaceutically acceptable surfactantsuch as a soap or a detergent, suspending agent such as pectin,carbomers, methycellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, orcarboxymethylcellulose, or emulsifying agent and other pharmaceuticaladjuvants.

Illustrative of oils which can be used in the parenteral formulations ofthis invention are those of petroleum, animal, vegetable, or syntheticorigin, for example, peanut oil, soybean oil, sesame oil, cottonseedoil, corn oil, olive oil, petrolatum and mineral oil. Suitable fattyacids include oleic acid, stearic acid, isostearic acid and myristicacid. Suitable fatty acid esters are, for example, ethyl oleate andisopropyl myristate. Suitable soaps include fatty acid alkali metal,ammonium, and triethanolamine salts and suitable detergents includecationic detergents, for example dimethyl dialkyl ammonium halides,alkyl pyridinium halides, and alkylamine acetates; anionic detergents,for example, alkyl, aryl, and olefin sulfonates, alkyl, olefin, ether,and monoglyceride sulfates, and sulfosuccinates; non-ionic detergents,for example, fatty amine oxides, fatty acid alkanolamides, andpoly(oxyethylene-oxypropylene)s or ethylene oxide or propylene oxidecopolymers; and amphoteric detergents, for example,alkyl-beta-aminopropionates, and 2-alkylimidazoline quarternary ammoniumsalts, as well as mixtures.

The parenteral compositions of this invention will typically containfrom about 0.5% to about 25% by weight of the active ingredient insolution. Preservatives and buffers may also be used advantageously. Inorder to minimise or eliminate irritation at the site of injection, suchcompositions may contain a non-ionic surfactant having ahydrophile-lipophile balance (HLB) preferably of from about 12 to about17. The quantity of surfactant in such formulation preferably rangesfrom about 5% to about 15% by weight. The surfactant can be a singlecomponent having the above HLB or can be a mixture of two or morecomponents having the desired HLB.

Illustrative of surfactants used in parenteral formulations are theclass of polyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters, for example, sorbitanmonooleate and the high molecular weight adducts of ethylene oxide witha hydrophobic base, formed by the condensation of propylene oxide withpropylene glycol.

The pharmaceutical compositions may be in the form of sterile injectableaqueous suspensions. Such suspensions may be formulated according toknown methods using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspendingagents such as, for example, sodium carboxymethylcellulose,methylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethyl-cellulose, sodium alginate,polyvinylpyrrolidone, gum tragacanth and gum acacia; dispersing orwetting agents which may be a naturally occurring phosphatide such aslecithin, a condensation product of an alkylene oxide with a fatty acid,for example, polyoxyethylene stearate, a condensation product ofethylene oxide with a long chain aliphatic alcohol, for example,heptadeca-ethyleneoxycetanol, a condensation product of ethylene oxidewith a partial ester derived form a fatty acid and a hexitol such aspolyoxyethylene sorbitol monooleate, or a condensation product of anethylene oxide with a partial ester derived from a fatty acid and ahexitol anhydride, for example polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate.

The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectablesolution or suspension in a non-toxic parenterally acceptable diluent orsolvent. Diluents and solvents that may be employed are, for example,water, Ringer's solution, isotonic sodium chloride solutions andisotonic glucose solutions. In addition, sterile fixed oils areconventionally employed as solvents or suspending media. For thispurpose, any bland, fixed oil may be employed including synthetic mono-or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid can be usedin the preparation of injectables.

A composition of the invention may also be administered in the form ofsuppositories for rectal administration of the drug. These compositionscan be prepared by mixing the drug with a suitable non-irritationexcipient which is solid at ordinary temperatures but liquid at therectal temperature and will therefore melt in the rectum to release thedrug. Such materials are, for example, cocoa butter and polyethyleneglycol.

Another formulation employed in the methods of the present inventionemploys transdermal delivery devices (“patches”). Such transdermalpatches may be used to provide continuous or discontinuous infusion ofthe compounds of the present invention in controlled amounts. Theconstruction and use of transdermal patches for the delivery ofpharmaceutical agents is well known in the art (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No.5,023,252, issued Jun. 11, 1991, incorporated herein by reference). Suchpatches may be constructed for continuous, pulsatile, or on demanddelivery of pharmaceutical agents.

Controlled release formulations for parenteral administration includeliposomal, polymeric microsphere and polymeric gel formulations that areknown in the art.

It may be desirable or necessary to introduce the pharmaceuticalcomposition to the patient via a mechanical delivery device. Theconstruction and use of mechanical delivery devices for the delivery ofpharmaceutical agents is well known in the art. Direct techniques for,for example, administering a drug directly to the brain usually involveplacement of a drug delivery catheter into the patient's ventricularsystem to bypass the blood-brain barrier. One such implantable deliverysystem, used for the transport of agents to specific anatomical regionsof the body, is described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,011,472, issued Apr. 30,1991.

The compositions of the invention can also contain other conventionalpharmaceutically acceptable compounding ingredients, generally referredto as carriers or diluents, as necessary or desired.

The example testing experiments described herein serve to illustrate thepresent invention and the invention is not limited to the examplesgiven.

Biological Assay: Proliferation Assay

Cultivated HeLa human cervical tumor cells (ATCC CCL-2) were plated at adensity of 3000 cells/well in a 96-well multititer plate in 200 μlDMEM/HAMS F12 medium supplemented with 2 mM L-Glutamine and 10% fetalcalf serum. After 24 hours, the cells of one plate (zero-point plate)were stained with crystal violet (see below), while the medium of theother plates was replaced by fresh culture medium (200 μl), to which thetest substances were added in various concentrations (0 μM, as well asin the range of 0.01-30 μM; the final concentration of the solventdimethyl sulfoxide was 0.5%). The cells were incubated for 4 days in thepresence of test substances. Cell proliferation was determined bystaining the cells with crystal violet: the cells were fixed by adding20 μl/measuring point of an 11% glutaric aldehyde solution for 15minutes at room temperature. After three washing cycles of the fixedcells with water, the plates were dried at room temperature. The cellswere stained by adding 100 μl/measuring point of a 0.1% crystal violetsolution (pH 3.0). After three washing cycles of the stained cells withwater, the plates were dried at room temperature. The dye was dissolvedby adding 100 μl/measuring point of a 10% acetic acid solution. Theextinction was determined by photometry at a wavelength of 595 nm. Thechange of cell number, in percent, was calculated by normalization ofthe measured values to the extinction values of the zero-point plate(=0%) and the extinction of the untreated (0 μm) cells (=100%). The IC50values were determined by means of a 4 parameter fit using the company'sown software.

Mps-1 Kinase Assay

The human kinase Mps-1 phosphorylates a biotinylated substrate peptide.Detection of the phosphorylated product is achieved by homogenoustime-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (HTRF) fromEuropium-labelled anti-phospho-Serine/Threonine antibody as donor tostreptavidin labelled with cross-linked allophycocyanin (SA-XLent) asacceptor. Compounds are tested for their inhibition of the kinaseactivity.

N-terminally GST-tagged human full length recombinant Mps-1 kinase(purchased from Invitrogen, Karslruhe, Germany, cat. no PV4071) wasused. As substrate for the kinase reaction a biotinylated peptide of theamino-acid sequence PWDPDDADITEILG (C-terminus in amide form, purchasedfrom Biosynthan GmbH, Berlin) was used.

For the assay 50 nl of a 100-fold concentrated solution of the testcompound in DMSO was pipetted into a black low volume 384 wellmicrotiter plate (Greiner Bio-One, Frickenhausen, Germany), 2 μl of asolution of Mps-1 in assay buffer [0.1 mM sodium-ortho-vanadate, 10 mMMgCl₂, 2 mM DTT, 25 mM Hepes pH 7.7, 0.05% BSA, 0.001% Pluronic F-127]were added and the mixture was incubated for 15 min at 22° C. to allowpre-binding of the test compounds to Mps-1 before the start of thekinase reaction. Then the kinase reaction was started by the addition of3 μl of a solution of 16.7 μM ATP and 1.67 μM peptide in assay bufferand the resulting mixture was incubated for a reaction time of 60 min at22° C. The concentration of Mps-1 in the assay was adjusted to theactivity of the enzyme lot and was chosen appropriate to have the assayin the linear range, typical enzyme concentrations were in the range ofabout 1 nM (final conc. in the 5 μl assay volume). The reaction wasstopped by the addition of 3 μl of a solution of HTRF detection reagents(100 mM Hepes pH 7.4, 0.1% BSA, 40 mM EDTA, 140 nM Streptavidin-XLent[#61GSTXLB, Fa. Cis Biointernational, Marcoule, France], 1.5 nManti-phospho(Ser/Thr)-Europium-antibody [#AD0180, PerkinElmer LAS,Rodgau-Jügesheim, Germany].

The resulting mixture was incubated 1 h at 22° C. to allow the bindingof the phosphorylated peptide to theanti-phospho(Ser/Thr)-Europium-antibody. Subsequently the amount ofphosphorylated substrate was evaluated by measurement of the resonanceenergy transfer from the Europium-labelled anti-phospho(Ser/Thr)antibody to the Streptavidin-XLent. Therefore, the fluorescenceemissions at 620 nm and 665 nm after excitation at 350 nm was measuredin a HTRF reader, e.g. a Rubystar (BMG Labtechnologies, Offenburg,Germany) or a Viewlux (PerkinElmer LAS, Rodgau-Jügesheim, Germany). Theratio of the emissions at 665 nm and at 622 nm was taken as the measurefor the amount of phosphorylated substrate. The data were normalised(enzyme reaction without inhibitor=0% inhibition, all other assaycomponents but no enzyme=100% inhibition). Test compounds were tested onthe same microtiter plate at 10 different concentrations in the range of20 μM to 1 nM (20 μM, 6.7 μM, 2.2 μM, 0.74 μM, 0.25 μM, 82 nM, 27 nM,9.2 nM, 3.1 nM and 1 nM, dilution series prepared before the assay atthe level of the 100 fold conc. stock solutions by serial 1:3 dilutions)in duplicate values for each concentration and IC₅₀ values werecalculated by a 4 parameter fit using an inhouse software.

Spindle Assembly Checkpoint Assay

The spindle assembly checkpoint assures the proper segregation ofchromosomes during mitosis. Upon entry into mitosis, chromosomes beginto condensate which is accompanied by the phosphorylation of histone H3on serine 10. Dephosphorylation of histone H3 on serine 10 begins inanaphase and ends at early telophase. Accordingly, phosphorylation ofhistone H3 on serine 10 can be utilized as a marker of cells in mitosis.Nocodazole is a microtubule destabilizing substance. Thus, nocodazoleinterferes with microtubule dynamics and mobilises the spindle assemblycheckpoint. The cells arrest in mitosis at G2/M transition and exhibitphosphorylated histone H3 on serine 10. An inhibition of the spindleassembly checkpoint by Mps-1 inhibitors overrides the mitotic blockagein the presence of nocodazole, and the cells complete mitosisprematurely. This alteration is detected by the decrease of cells withphosphorylation of histone H3 on serine 10. This decline is used as amarker to determine the capability of compounds of the present inventionto induce a mitotic breakthrough.

Cultivated cells of the human cervical tumor cell line HeLa (ATCC CCL-2)were plated at a density of 2500 cells/well in a 384-well microtiterplate in 20 μl Dulbeco's Medium (w/o phenol red, w/o sodium pyruvate, w1000 mg/ml glucose, w pyridoxine) supplemented with 1% (v/v) glutamine,1% (v/v) penicillin, 1% (v/v) streptomycin and 10% (v/v) fetal calfserum. After incubation overnight at 37° C., 10 μl/well nocodazole at afinal concentration of 0.1 pg/ml were added to cells. After 24 hincubation, cells were arrested at G2/M phase of the cell cycleprogression. Test compounds solubilised in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)were added at various concentrations (0 μM, as well as in the range of0.005 μM-10 μM; the final concentration of the solvent DMSO was 0.5%(v/v)). Cells were incubated for 4 h at 37° C. in the presence of testcompounds. Thereafter, cells were fixed in 4% (v/v) paraformaldehyde inphosphate buffered saline (PBS) at 4° C. overnight then permeabilised in0.1% (v/v) Triton X™ 100 in PBS at room temperature for 20 min andblocked in 0.5% (v/v) bovine serum albumin (BSA) in PBS at roomtemperature for 15 min. After washing with PBS, 20 μl/well antibodysolution (anti-phospho-histone H3 clone 3H10, FITC; Upstate, Cat#16-222;1:200 dilution) was added to cells, which were incubated for 2 h at roomtemperature. Afterwards, cells were washed with PBS and 20 μl/wellHOECHST 33342 dye solution (5 μg/ml) was added to cells and cells wereincubated 12 min at room temperature in the dark. Cells were washedtwice with PBS then covered with PBS and stored at 4° C. until analysis.Images were acquired with a Perkin Elmer OPERA™ High-Content Analysisreader. Images were analyzed with image analysis software MetaXpress™from Molecular devices utilizing the Cell Cycle application module. Inthis assay both labels HOECHST 33342 and phosphorylated Histone H3 onserine 10 were measured. HOECHST 33342 labels DNA and is used to countcell number. The staining of phosphorylated Histone H3 on serine 10determines the number of mitotic cells. Inhibition of Mps-1 decreasesthe number of mitotic cells in the presence of nocodazole indicating aninappropriate mitotic progression. The raw assay data were furtheranalysed by four parameter logistic regression analysis to determine theIC₅₀ value for each tested compound.

It will be apparent to persons skilled in the art that assays for otherMps kinases may be performed in analogy using the appropriate reagents.Selected results are presented in the following Table:
